 Super Taco - Estupendo Bueno

This modest-seeming truck is a heavyweight in mobile food vending. Four or five employees fit into the tiny workspace inside, turning out an impressive array of offerings. It being my first visit, I stuck to the tacos. I was not disappointed -- two slightly sweet, pliable corn tortillas topped with a perfect quantity of meat, lettuce, onions and herbs. Red and green sauces, radish, lemon, and pickled jalapeno were available to add at the self-service bar. Of the three I tried, the beef steak and spicy pork tacos were unbelievable -- it's really impossible to choose a favorite. The barbeque chicken was comparitavely bland although perfectly passable. I also strongly recommend the orchata, a cold, sweet, rice-based drink. (It may sound weird if you haven't tried it, but trust me, it tastes good! Especially with a spicy taco.)

AND THEY DELIVER! (although I don't know how far away)

This review is obviously incomplete. I'm dying to go back and try the daily specials, as well as some of the more exotic tacos like goat and tounge, not to mention the fried sweet plaintains I saw at the counter. And the tortas. But even though I've only scratched the surface of the menu (which is pictured in it's entierety above), I didn't want to wait for another trip to post about this great operation. Expect more info to follow.
